About Talking with the Experts
As the name suggests, my guests, experts in their field, and I dive deeply into topics relevant to businesses large or small.
What Guests Have Said…
“Thank you so much for having me on your show. It was fabulous. It was a flawlessly executed session. It is truly a “talking with the experts” show where you let the expertise of the experts shine. I am impressed with the level of research you conducted to ask thought-provoking questions. I appreciate your ability to host a great show where you could draw upon the wisdom of your guests to bring unique learning for the listeners. I would highly recommend this show to people in my network and anyone who likes to spotlight their expertise with an experienced host like you.”
I learned about the Talking With The Experts podcast through my Podcast Booking Agency, YesBoss.
I thoroughly enjoyed my discussion with the host, Rose Davidson. We covered a great deal of aspects pertaining to Creating Small Business Growth.
She has a very relaxed yet engaging interview style. Hence we were able to do a bit of a “deep-dive” into the issues without it feeling like you are just going through and answering a bunch of scripted questions. Rose also has a quirky sense of humour which made for added fun in our discussion.
If you are an expert looking to get your message out to your audience in an insightful, fun and engaging way, I highly recommend you consider being a guest on Talking With The Experts.
As for anything to change with Rose’s approach or format—Absolutely Not!

Pre-roll and Mid-roll ads
When advertisers purchase ad space on a podcast, they usually choose pre-roll ads (play at the beginning of the episode) and mid-roll ads (play at the end of the episode), and post-rolls play at the end.
These ads are based on a CPM (“cost per mile”) model of advertising. CPM is the cost of 1,000 ad impressions (or plays.) This structure works best for bigger shows (5,000 + downloads per episode).
Here is the current industry standard pricing for podcast advertisers according to AdvertiseCast:
- $18 per 1,000 listens (CPMs) for a 15 second pre-roll ad
- $25 per 1,000 listens (CPMs) for a 60 second mid-roll ad
CPA (cost per acquisition) is the other advertising model in podcasting. This structure bases profits on the number of conversions instead of impressions and works best for smaller podcasts since there is no upfront cost.
These prices are just the industry-standard rates — they can vary based on the network or podcast host selling the ad space.

Now is the time to get more ears and eyes on your business and get more ‘bang for your buck‘. With rates this low, you can’t go wrong.
It’s challenging being a business owner at the best of times and never more so than since early 2020.
Many businesses were forced to close their doors permanently or for extended periods of time.
Many businesses did not transform themselves so that they could remain viable.
This resulted in a huge blow to their financial resources, not to mention their mental health wellness.
I am a great believer in ‘paying it forward’. That is how, in July of 2020, ‘Talking with the Experts’ was born. It was my view that if I could help just one business owner diversify their business, I could help the many.
Talking with the Experts was launched on 13 July 2020. On 01 August 2021 (384 days since launch), the podcast hit 10,100 plays with 913 in the 7 days prior and 656 in the 24 hours prior to 01 August 2021.
That placed Talking with the Experts in the top 5% of podcasts at that time.
With more than 2,000,000 podcasts and over 48 million episodes as of April 2021 worldwide (Podcast Insights, 2021), what an awesome opportunity for you to get your business in front of people.
